The camp's lounge boasts soaring ceilings offset by low-hanging, Afro-centric chandeliers and elegant portraits of beautiful Samburu women, complete with comfortable sofas and chairs encouraging guests to linger and soak up the sophisticated ambience. With so few guests an intimate experience is guaranteed, complemented by seamless, intuitive service.

Strategically located to face a watering hole and favourite gathering place for an extraordinary variety of game, guests can revel in cinematic views of buffaloes and zebras, rhinos, elands, and other animal species grazing on the plains while they enjoy drinks or dinner.

With 10 spacious and airy tents, and a brand new private villa, expect vibrant décor that reflects local culture, with teak floors and Maasai art.

Guest Tents
Spacious and airy, with a private veranda overlooking the grassy plains of the Ol Pejeta Conservancy, expect vibrant décor that reflects local culture, with teak floors and Maasai art. Each of the 10 luxury guest tents offers stunning views of the landscape from the super king beds, with a walk-in shower, double basin and sumptuous towels in the ensuite. After adventurous days of tracking lions or riding horses with rhinos, guests can retire to their secluded tented camp for sundowners and attentive five-star service.

Private Villa
Discover privacy in the heart of the bush at Sanctuary Tambarare's private villa, opened July 2023. Contemporary style meets characterful interiors in the villa's two bedrooms, indoor and outdoor lounge and dining area, bar, private deck and boma. The sophisticated free-flowing space contains two bedrooms, each fully ensuite and decorated in a boutique-meets-bush design. Inside the spacious and beautifully appointed private lounge and dining area, inviting sofas and chairs encourage you to relax. With indoor and outdoor space, immerse yourself in the dramatic landscape and experience a strong connection of place. Meals are prepared by a private chef and can be served in the tented dining area or outdoors under the vast African sky.

Sanctuary Tambarare is a bright and eye-catching new camp. Under the impressive gaze of Mount Kenya, the camp sits in Ol Pejeta Conservancy, an untamed realm where you'll follow in the footprints of the Big Five and lay beneath the star-spangled African sky. Laikipia is known for its collection of private camps with big hearts for conservation and Sanctuary Tambarare fits right in. Each day brings the chance to get to know the land and creatures that call it home, your expert guide sharing the secrets of their plains with you.

The central tent is a chic and good-looking communal space with a cushy lounge area. Mismatched sofas in purple and green are well-positioned for enjoying a new read from the library. The softly-lit dining area is decorated in light wood and wicker lamp shades and fresh and tasty dishes are served here on the daily. Grab something refreshing at the bar tent and sit out on a lounger as the sun sets over a dreamy landscape. After a day of wild adventures, head down to the boma to swap stories and hear local legends from your guide.

Sanctuary Tambarare has just 10 luxury tents to escape behind after a day on safari. The classic canvas style has received an upgrade including massive beds clouded in sheer drapes, teak floors and Maasai-inspired artwork in the camp's signature blue. The en-suite bathrooms include a walk-in shower, double basins and spacious wardrobe. A vanity and patterned rugs add a homely touch to the sitting area and floor-to-ceiling glass doors open onto a veranda where a spectacular view greets you each morning.
